Guest Comments

"What a nice change from the routine hotel room and atmosphere. After a long day of intense business meetings, I can destress with a long whirlpool bath followed by a good book by the fireplace in my room. Cobblestone Manor is better than home!" - CS, Operations Director

"The beds are unbelievable; the breakfasts are even better!" - J & JN, Retired

"Cobblestone Manor provided everything that was needed to make for a quiet, relaxed and intimate two days. The Meadowlark Suite was so nice it was difficult to find a reason to go out anywhere. Bring a bottle of wine or champagne, slip into the bath and relax. As far as breakfast is concerned....try saying 'No' to the generous offer for more." - JT, Global Sales Manager and Seasoned Traveller
